Rethinking Data Collection Methods During the Pandemic: Development and Implementation of CATI for the All of Us Research Program

Le résumé fourni par la source

The All of Us Research Program is a longitudinal cohort study aiming to build a diverse database to advance precision medicine. The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the ability of participants to receive in-person assistance at enrollment sites to complete digital surveys. Therefore, the program implemented Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) to facilitate survey completion remotely to combat the disrupted data collection procedures. In January 2021, All of Us implemented a 1-year CATI Pilot supporting 9399 participants and resulting in 16 337 submitted surveys. The pilot showed that CATI was successful in increasing survey completion and retention activities for the All of Us Research Program, given the additional remote support offered to participants. Given the success of the CATI Pilot, multimodal survey administration will continue.
